Family Snapshot Tabs & Lyrics by Peter Gabriel
Family Snapshot
guitar tabs lyrics
Hi there,
This is a great song but it was pretty hard to figure out the chords since it's played
the piano, anyway maybe some parts are wrong but I think it sounds good
Standard tuning with capo on the 1st fret
A D A
The streets are lined with camera crews
E D
Everywhere he goes is news
G Cm
Today is different
G Cm
Today is not the same
G Cm
Today I make the action
C C* G
Take snapshot into the light, snapshot into the light (twice)
C C* C
Im shooting into the light
F#m
Four miles down the cavalcade moves on
E
Driving into the sun
A Asus4 A Asus4
If I worked it out right
A Asus4 A Asus4
They wont see me or the gun
F#m
Two miles to go, theyre clearing the road
E
The cheering has really begun
A Asus4
Ive got my radio
A Asus4 A Asus4
I can hear whats going on
E F#m
Ive been waiting for this
I have been waiting for this
All you people in tv land
I will wake up your empty shells
Peak-time viewing blown in a flash
As I burn into your memory cells
cos Im alive
This part (I've been waiting for this...) can be played this way:
E--0-----------2-------0------------2-------|
B--0--0--------2-------0--0--3--3---2-------|
G--1--2--1-----2-------1--2--2--2---2-------|
D--2--2--2-----4-------2--2--0--0---4-------|
A--2--2--2--2--4-------2--2---------4-------|
E--0--0--0--0--2-------0--0---------2-------|
G F#m
Holding my breath
G F#m
Release the catch
G A C
And I let the bullet fly
G D Em
All turned quiet-i have been here before
C D G C
Lonely boy hiding behind the front door
D
Friends have all gone home
G
Theres my toy gun on the floor
D Em
Come back mum and dad
C D
Youre growing apart
G C
You know that Im growing up sad
D
I need some attention
G
I shoot into the light
C*
